Surface Gallery is pleased to present two solo exhibits: The Table, new paintings by gallery owner and curator Valerie Surface Lloyd, and Scorched Earth, a collection by multidisciplinary artist Sara Tucker. Both shows open with a reception on Friday, November 6, from 4 to 8 p.m., and run through Wednesday, November 25.
"The Table "by Valerie Surface Lloyd
The Table is an exhibit of hand-painted food: plates and arrangements that serve as symbols of care, beauty, and bounty. Lloyd sees food as more than sustenance for the body. It also tends to the soul. Each painting is a small act of welcome, and the table on which the work is placed becomes a space for gathering.
“The table is where conversation lives, whether of joy, reconciliation, or simply the quiet of being together in silence,” says Lloyd. “The work is a reflection on the art of eating together, in the hope that we might hear one another again.”
"Scorched Earth" by Sara Tucker
Scorched Earth is an honest, emotional collection from Tucker, whose abstract work reflects the fluidity of life and the energy of natural landscapes. Created over several years of grief and anger, the paintings arrive at a different understanding of those feelings, one Tucker hopes viewers will recognize in themselves. " Let their earth be scorched. And when all falls silent we can use those embers to light our way home again. Back to fertile ground. Back to new life. Back to progress. Back to love. Love with a place to go. "
